“We definitely need another Brunelli baby in 2025,” he joked on Instagram.
‘I would love to get super fit before I get pregnant again. This was me at my best. 20,000 steps a day, weight training and running,” he explained.
“If I had time to do all that again, it would probably look like that.” For me, after having a child, my priorities changed enormously.
“I’m not as vain as I used to be and I’m not sleeping as much as I used to haha. Fitness will be a big goal for me next year.”
Martha recently sent her fans into a frenzy by announcing that she wants to marry her fiancé Michael in a matter of weeks.
In a preview of her new podcast with Michael and his mother Mary, called The Morning Roast, Martha said she wanted to end the marriage once and for all.
The make-up artist, who has been engaged to Michael for three years after they met on MAFS, caused a stir by saying she wanted “a shotgun wedding”.
A shotgun wedding usually refers to a marriage ceremony in which the bride is already pregnant, but it can also mean a hasty marriage for other reasons.
‘I feel like I just want to have a shotgun wedding and get married in November of this year. “I just want to do it,” he said.
Martha also assured her 719,000 followers that she no longer focuses on her appearance like she used to.
‘In fact, I would love to have a wedding at home. What do you think about having a wedding in November if we organize it quickly? she asked.
Michael responded, “I’m willing to do the easiest thing,” and Martha said they could just “host a lunch.”
Fans were confused and one asked in the comments: ‘Doesn’t the shotgun wedding mean the bride is pregnant?’
The majority overwhelmingly supported her and told Martha that she won’t regret hosting something intimate at a fairytale wedding.
Martha and Michael first met on the 2019 season of the Channel Nine dating show, and fans have been following their journey closely ever since.
They currently live at her parents Mary and Theo’s home in Melbourne, and Martha recently responded to online trolls who accused her of abusing her parents.

—Why don’t you and Michael pay your own expenses like the rest of the world? one troll asked, referring to the young family’s current living situation.
Martha rejected the claim that she was taking advantage of her parents and said the decision to live with Theo and Mary was not financially motivated.
“Our way of living has nothing to do with money,” he wrote.
‘The sad thing is that you probably think we lived with my parents to take advantage of the situation. That’s the furthest thing from the truth.’
He added that his young family’s current living situation was a win-win for everyone involved.
“We actually enjoyed each other,” he said.
‘Living in a multigenerational home with my parents brings us closer, encourages mutual support, and creates a rich environment where wisdom and experience combine. It also makes my parents happy.’
Martha finished the spray by adding that she felt sorry for the critic.
“I feel sorry for you because you can’t see the benefits of our situation,” he said.
